That was just the closest picture I could find on a quick search. It's the same basic style, but the way they do is locally is use 6x6 posts. looks like 4x4's in that picture. They also provide all the materials except for nails/screws.
I wouldn't have the sides come all the way...
I'm planning on building a little cabin-style home and I'm in the R&D/Planning phase now.
The cabin would be 20x20x10. The ceiling would be 6" thick and filled with spray foam, with 1/2" plywood on top and that would be caulked and sealed with deck sealant. The pole barn would be about twice...
I tried lowes, home depot and google. Found some places in europe that sell them online but shipping to me would be killer. I'll try a roofing place like you suggested.
I have a project I'm working on that will require a large # of 1 inch circular soffit vents - but none of my local hardware stores carry them.
Any idea where I can buy them, preferably in bulk?
Here's a pic if that helps:
Thanks in advance!
